WEBVTT PROBATION FOR HAZING. NEW AT 9:00, A CRASH ON A BUSY HIGHWAY ENDS WITH A VEHICLE FLIPPING SEVERAL TIMES, TWO TEENS AND THEIR DOG INSIDE. BY THE TIME THE VEHICLE CAME TO A STOP, THE DOG WAS MISSING. KMBC 9'S KISHA HENRY WENT TO CHECK ON THEM TONIGHT, AND HAS A HAPPY UPDATE. KISHA: 17-YEAR-OLD SAM, HIS GIRLFRIEND ASHLYNN, AND THEIR NEW DOG HUDSON WERE DRIVING ON 470 WHEN THEY GOT INTO A BAD ACCIDENT SUNDAY. THEIR VEHICLE FLIPPED, AND HUDSON WAS NOWHERE TO BE FOUND. SAM AND ASHLYNN ARE DOING WELL TONIGHT, JUST A LITTLE SORE. AND THE BEST NEWS OF ALL? HUDSON IS BACK HOME, SAFE AND SOUND. IT DIDN'T JUST FLIP.

KISHA: AFTER HOURS OF SEARCHING, THEY FINALLY GOT THE CALL FROM A WOMAN WHO RECOGNIZED HUDSON FROM THE FACEBOOK POST. HE WAS JUST SITTING THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD, CRYING. WHEN SHE CALLED HIM, SHE SAID, HUDSON, COME HERE. HE WAS SO SCARED HE WAS PEEING AS HE WAS WALKING UP TO HER. KISHA: SAM AND ASHLYN NOW REUNITED WITH THEIR NEW DOG, WHO ALREADY FEELS LIKE FAMILY. JUST GETTING THE PHONE CALL THAT HE WAS BACK AND SAFE JUST MELTED MY HEART. HUDSON IS THE PERFECT DOG. KISHA: KISHA HENRY, KMBC 9 NEWS. KRIS: POLICE ARE STILL INVESTIGATING. NO CHARGES HAVE BEEN FILED. HUDSON THE PUP MANAGED TO MAKE IT OUT OF THE WRECK WITHOUT A
